JC and the Tree

To celebrate the release of their latest single 'Made to Roam' JC & the Tree are putting a series of special events including this backyard concert in Brisbane. BYO picnic food, drinks, chairs, blankets, pillows etc. This event will kick off at 3pm and finish around 7pm so people can afterwards enjoy either an early night or an evening out. Opening the evening will be powerhouse singer-songwriter Jack Raymond, known for his powerful and emotive vocals. JC & the Tree will then play their range of original songs starting with their sweet mellow soulful indie-folk tunes before kicking up gear into their powerful and dynamic folk-rock pieces.

About Jack Raymond Occasionally a voice grips you. Makes a song feel like the arrival of an old friend even when you don’t know the words. Jack Raymond has one of those voices. It’s the crackling of a campfire, boots on a gravel road, whisky meets ice. It’s a voice you’ve never heard before but you’ve known it your whole life. Hailing from country Harrietville, Victoria, this man of the mountains has travelled the coastline and settled by the ocean in Noosa, Queensland. His style is “mountain roots” – rugged, raw and grounded in blues with an easy rock undertone. Raymond is a storyteller, drawing inspiration from his travels and the characters he’s met along the way. Raymond has played slots at nationally-recognised festivals including Kiama Blues Festival, The Gympie Muster, Agnes Blues n Roots and Sofar Sounds. In 2021, Raymond was named a finalist in the Australian Busking Championships and has supported touring artists including Riley Pearce, Hatz Fitz & Cara, Sunday Lemonade, Flynn Gurry, Darren Hanlon, Alex Koseko, Ben Smith Band.
